Michael Hiltzikn The Los Angeles Times
He was a journalist at the Buffalo Courier-Express in (Buffalo, New York) in 1974–1978 and bureau chief in 1976–1978. He was a staff writer at the Providence Journal-Bulletin (Providence, Rhode Island) 1979–1981.

He was a financial staff writer, editor, and columnist at the Times 1994–2006. More recently, he began writing a column about business and economic issues in the US West Coast.
In 1985, Michael Hiltzikn shared a Gerald Loeb Award Honorable Mention for Large Newspapers for “Takeovers”. He won Silver Gavel award from the American Bar Association and the Overseas Press Club cited his reporting on East African issues. In 1996 he was a finalist for two Pulitzer Prizes, for his reporting on health care issues in California and his reporting on a major entertainment merger between Disney and ABC.
Along with Times staff writer Chuck Philips, Michael Hiltzik won the 1999 Pulitzer Prize for their series on corruption and bribes in the music industry. The year-long series exposed corruption in the music business in three different areas: The Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences raised money for an ostensible charity that netted only pennies on the dollar for its charity; radio station “payola,” for airplay of new recordings; and the proliferation of exploitive and poorly conceived medical detox programs for celebrities.
Mark Saylor, then entertainment editor of the business section of the paper, said it was especially rewarding because it recognized “aggressive reporting on the hometown industry where The LA Times has long labored under a cloud, the misperception that they were soft on the entertainment industry”. The series led to the removal of C. Michael Green, then Grammy chief.
